Gone to Texas : genealogical abstracts from "The telegraph & Texas register", 1835-1841 / compiled by Kevin Ladd.

This book is aimed at genealogists with Texas roots, genealogists in search of missing ancestors (perhaps they did "go to Texas"), and also readers interested in Texas and local history. The Telegraph and Texas Register was born at the same time as the Texas Revolution, chronicling the momentous events of that conflict for its "Texian" subscribers. Its pages were filled with news of murders, fatal encounters with Indians and Mexicans, unusual deaths, marriages, probate proceedings, and ordinary events of the new Republic. The gleanings of genealogical information document thousands of events that can often be found nowhere else. This information will provide family and local historians with important source material. It will also assist researchers who have been hampered by the loss and destruction of county records, as well as the absence of 1830 and 18480 Texas censuses. back cover 20160406.
